What do you mean Quartus Tcl Compilation flow API? I always run "quartus_sh --flow compile <project_name>" and that mimics the pushbutton GUI flow, and will run partition merge if necessary. If that's what you're talking about that can't be run, I'm not sure of an easy way to work around it.

Thanks for your reply, Rysc.

What I means is the TCL package for Full Compilation provided by Quartus.

% package require ::quartus::flow

% execute_flow -compile

I would like keep the flexibility to control when to run each process (map, cdb, fit, sta, and etc) in my regression tests so I'm avoiding the ONESHOT compilation switch.
